Haute-Normandie travel guide
Haute-Normandie, also called Upper Normandy, invites you to its fabulous seaside resorts immortalized by impressionist painters, such as Claude Monet, Renoir, and Pissarro. This historically important region has many fine churches and preserved buildings for you to explore, including the tallest cathedral tower in France. The 120 km (75 mi) of chalk cliffs just south of the English Channel coastline continue to place this region on tourist itineraries. You can charter a large sea vessel or a smaller boat for a trip offering unobstructed views of these magnificent cliffs from the sea.
Pays de la Loire travel guide
With 368 km (230 miles) of Atlantic Ocean coast, Pays de la Loire is a region rich with picturesque ports, renowned seaside resorts, salt marshes, and a strong maritime tradition. As a vivacious region, it hosts two legendary races, the 24 Hours of Le Mans car races in June and the Vendée Globe sailing races in November. With five departments, the majority of the famous châteaux and attractions of the Loire Valley are located in the Centre region, and not in the Pays de la Loire, despite the name. However, you will be happy to find that the weather is mild and conducive to biking, strolling, boating, and sightseeing around the region while discovering its secrets, such as its vineyards and wineries from Saumur to Anjou.
